778 Park Avenue was designed by celebrated architect Rosario Candela for developer Charles Newmark. It was completed in 1931 and considered to be one of Candela’s finest and most sought-after buildings. It is a full service, white glove cooperative with only 18 apartments. A prime location at 73rd Street is convenient to Central Park, shopping, restaurants, galleries and schools.
